The Quartering Act forced colonists to allow British troops to live in their homes. This allowed the British to save money on food and lodging for their troops. Yet, it also allowed the troops to see if there was anything unusual going on in the colonies. Colonists had to pay for the food and give up at least one room as a result and they had no real choice in the mattering.
